Give Back This Breast Cancer Awareness Month: Seymour Pink Selected to Benefit in Big Y Community Bag Program This October

Reduce single-use plastic in the environment and give back to those in need in the local community, all while supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month at Big Y.  Seymour Pink has been selected by local Big Y store leadership as the benefiting non-profit in the Community Bag Program for the month of October!

The Big Y Community Bag Program is an easy way for shoppers to give back to the local community and the environment as part of the regular shopping routine. Every $2.50 reusable Community Bag sends a $1 donation to a non-profit local to the Big Y in which it was purchased.

As part of this ongoing program, every month at every Big Y location a different local non-profit is selected to benefit from the sale of the reusable Community Bag. Seymour Pink was selected as the October beneficiary in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month by local store leadership at the stores located at 1060 West Main St, Branford CT and 1289 Foxon Rd / Rte 80, North Branford CT.  Seymour Pink will receive a $1 donation for every $2.50 reusable Community Bag purchased at this location in October.

“This is such a powerful way to give back to a worthy cause as part of your regular shopping routine,” said Mary Deming, Founder and President of Seymour Pink. “Non-profits at the local level, like us, are in need of community support. This program offers the perfect opportunity to support the environment, give back locally and raise awareness during this Breast Cancer Awareness Month!”
